Pandemonium

Smoke puffs are white and piling This head feels like an island I am my own asylum Their stares are beady but I don't mind Let 'em take their time 'Cause there ain't no new light to shed, no, no Pandemonium calms me down like an ocean, oh An ocean, oh And I'm kissing pillow lips, drunk off saccharine potions, oh And nothing really matters 'Cause everybody here is dyin', mm Dyin' out in slow motion, mm And everybody here is lyin', lyin' Silently detonating emotions Read the spaces between the lines Mind your own business while I grow mine No, it's never personal, yeah Maybe that's the problem (that's the problem) We loosen up every rung on the ladder Serve up a smile on a silver platter No one needs a pillar, just a painkiller or two 'Cause everybody here is dyin', mm Dyin' out in slow motion, mm And everybody here is lyin', lyin' Silently detonating emotions Mm, mm We're dyin' in the dark It's written there in the stars You're understood by so little And loved only from afar And counting blessings is hard I don't quite know where to start The gold is new, but the gray Well, that's just state of the art And bottoms up to skeletons all bottled up Always going when the going gets too tough, oh Yeah, everybody here is dyin' Dyin' out in slow motion And everybody here is lyin', lyin' Silently detonating emotions Yeah, everybody here is dyin' Dyin' out in slow motion And everybody here is lyin', lyin' Silently detonating emotions 'Cause everybody here is dyin' --- Pandemonium - NIKI
